Nature Park Homolka - Vojířov 8 km

The Homolka - Vojířov Nature Park is an area with a distinctive landscape character with neatly incorporated farms and small holdings. Its location at the border did not allow for the development of the area in the past, which is only beneficial for its recreational use today. In the forest complex Homolka there still remains a relatively high proportion of mixed stands of flowery beeches of drooping bittercress. The best ones are protected in the nature reserve Fabian, but there are also many important plant species elsewhere. Occurrences of rare and endangered animal species include the black stork, stock dove, owl, woodcock, pygmy owl, boreal owl and the European moose. Přírodní park Homolka - Vojířov

Town of Slavonice (UNESCO) 30 km

The establishment of the town dates back to around the 12th century. The oldest written record dates from 1260. Originally it was a settlement, later a market village which belonged to the lords of Hradec (Vítkovec branch). The village slowly developed into a fortified town. From the 13th century an elaborate underground system was created that not only served as drainage but also as a defensive system for the town. The town was greatly influenced by the 14th century. At that time, it was probably extended from an earlier circular fortified settlement to a larger, gently sloping marketplace towards the west (nam. Miru) and also a market place eastwards in the form of an expanded street (Horni nam.). Město Slavonice

Červená Lhota castle 37 km

One Czech castle with one of the most romantic locations is the Červená Lhota water castle in South Bohemia. It was built on a rock which became a small island. As a baronial fortress, it was bought in 1530 by Jan Kába of Rybňany and was soon rebuilt into a Renaissance castle. After 1641, Lhota became the property of the Slavatas, the lords of nearby Jindřichův Hradec. Before the mid-19th century E. J. Schönburg-Hartenstein had the exterior of the castle changed into romantic style. At the beginning of the 20th century, the battlements and other neo-Gothic elements disappeared.

State chateau of Hluboka nad Vltavou 60 km

On the site of the today's castle there stood a Gothic castle from the 13th century which was significantly expanded in the late 15th century by William of Pernštejn. In 1562, King Ferdinand I sold Hluboka into the hereditary ownership of the Lords of Hradec, who rebuilt it into a Renaissance chateau. A century later the Hluboká estate was bought by Jan Adolf I of Schwarzenberg, a founding member of the family branch that operated in South Bohemia for almost three hundred years. At the request of Prince Adam Franz, Adolf's grandson, the castle was rebuilt in the early 18th century by P. I. Bayer and his successor E. Martinelli into Baroque style. In the second half of the 19th century, prince Jan Adolf II. and his wife Eleanor rebuilt Hluboká once more, this time into romantic style. The project was designed by architect Franz Beer, who also managed the construction works for 20 years after this reconstruction started in 1840. Old buildings were demolished and replaced by a newly built picturesque castle in Tudor Gothic style. Its sophisticated exterior and interior decorations were completed in 1871 by Beer's successor, Ferdinand Deworetzky. Státní zámek Hluboka nad Vltavou
